Becoming more obvious all the time that Coney is not the owner of that warehouse but wants to hang on as long as he can in hopes of finding Stooge’s stash.
It seems that Alex is a partner in this operation. Is he expected to help get Dethany and Tracy off their case? Maybe he’s just supposed to figure out how to cancel the sale to Fastrack.
Polite version of Oh s#!+ often used when one realizes that circumstances previously deemed harmless have rapidly turned around and are now going to bite them in the butt.
1-FAT ARCHIE: Well, if you can’t help me with my money issues, maybe you can help me with a personal problem. BOSS: Sure. There’s a Weight Watchers meeting place down the street.
2-FAT ARCHIE: What? No, that’s not a problem. I can drop weight anytime I want. I was on the High School Wrestling team. I know all the tricks. You should a seen how shredded I was then. Man, I was…
3-BOSS: Have you tried ipecac syrup on your ice cream cones?
FAT ARCHIE: Nah. That stuff don’t affect me no more. In fact, nothing turns my stomach no more. I could eat 5 day old Arizona road kill without a problem.
BOSS: EUREKA! There’s an opening at the morgue for someone to assist on the re-autopsy of suspected poisoning victims! I’ll take my usual 10% of course.
FAT ARCHIE: Tried that Boss. I got fired when all the results came back showing traces of ice cream. Cops hassled every scoop jockey in town before they figured out it was my fault.
Oh dear. Dearie me. Who is this "Dethany Dendrobia " person? Will she be a problem? With Dick Tracy, I am already too familiar!
Just deal with it all, Alex! And speaking of dealing, have Jenny fetch me two more cones, ya hear?!
A couple of baddies, demonstrating baddieness, though we do not yet know the details of their nefarious backgrounds. I wonder how legit Wilson’s business is….

Maybe it’s just me, but the way this guy eats and licks his ice cream while he’s talking looks disgusting.
Judeeye Premium Member almost 4 years ago
What’s up with the icecream. Since he started talking he has not made a dent and it hasn’t melted.
William Bednar Premium Member almost 4 years ago
The way Coney is licking, that ice cream doesn’t have a chance of melting. By the way, what will Coney do when the ice cream and cone are eaten?

the new wrinkle isn’t dethany, it’s the fact the police are now sniffing around.

Well, maybe if you hadn’t gone straight to murder to solve your problems, Dethany wouldn’t have needed to get Dick Tracy involved. Duh.

It was be cool if Wilson’s cyberpunk secretary was actually an assassin and he could send her after Dethany and Tracy.

Coney with the ice cream reminds me of another character….Charlie Vanilla from Steve Canyon.

This Coney is starting to seriously creep me out. In P1 he appears to be growing a snout.

The name Dick Tracy strikes fear into the heart of any wise criminal.

Haha, even his hair looks like an icecream swirl. Nice touch, Joe!
